Good for you bro. I'm also a fellow addict. I haven't touched H or anything in years, but I've been stuck on an endless cycle of subs. I'm tapering off finally, and next week I move down to 2mg a day. Anyhow, congrats on your sobriety and getting back on the board.

people don't know, billy used to run 12th & A. some of my fondest childhood memories were bonding with friends learning the craft of skateboarding while feeling so utterly safe and free in the play ground that billy fostered. contests, nonsense, and a shipping container of snacks. billy, thank you, big bro.

dude good call!

Billy Rohan is the greatest personality in skateboarding much respect for having him on

A Florida legend. I remember being up in Gainesville skating with friends and we happened upon a "secret" mini ramp. Billy Rohan ended up showing up and we (my skate crew) were in awe watching him.

I caught a ride with Billy from Panama city beach to Dothan Alabama for a skate contest back in the 90's. The first true legend I ever met. Besides Buck Smith. Florida forever.

"That's Tony Hawk's brother, Mike." "wu-tang, fuck it." 😆

Rohan is dope. Samurai and hobby holding it down in Gainesville

All the Gainesville homies are solid!! Glad to see something showing what they do

This is amazing! Billy is a great dude, glad to see him getting recognition!

im a university student in the panhandle. driving south for spring break last week and stopped in Gainesville for a skate break, visited this shop and skated the mini but had no idea Billy owned it. super cool vid

DM'd Billy a while ago for tips on mental health and he responded super quick. Dope to see a legend so willing to support others in any shape or form

The portrait was in the Sidewalk Magazine interview with Billy. Such a rad skater. Great work Jenkem, always bringing the content you didn’t know you needed

Skating in air max’s is crazy.

I was just watching his epicly laterd from the mid-2000s. Good to see him well.

shout out to Mike Hawk

Dude encouraged me to drop in on vert at “the school” park - Woodward, PA. Formative memory…grateful to him and his love of skating. 🙏🏻 Thanks Billy!

The Paynes Prarie Trail gets shutdown sometimes in the spring because there are too many gators. Before the rainy season they all get condensed into one area around that lake.

If you lived in New York at the same time as him you’ll have a few Billy stories. Glad to see him doing well.

Always entertaining and that fs flip in the trainers was G

Fuckin Billy man. That he is always changing never changes. So like, yeah. What up Billy.

Damn! This was so good to watch!

amazing video!!!

gainesville a great place to live

It's great to see Billy doing well and still ripping.

Gently vibing with animals really shows your true character🙌🙏

Definitely a Florida legend. Whenever this cat was present you knew some good shit was about to go down! Glad you're doing well homie!

mike hawk joke was fire

There’s a video of him constructing a mini ramp I think vice put out maybe a decade ago, and I’ve watched that video so many times thinking I’d build myself one….then I always realized I’m not handy and really have no where to put it. But anyway, always admire the craftsmanship

That's how you get craftsmanship by craftsmanshipping. Building ramps launched many a craftsmen.

this guy did a blind hardflip over a quarter. I haven't heard of anyone else doing it. and he nollie hardflip down the NY courthouse. damn. he is so cool and well mannered, what a guy.

billy rohan rules florida forever!

I’ve met Billy, he is a super cool dude and that mini ramp is fun af!!

Billy is much more a character that I imagined. I’d love to see more of him❤ He’s living the Wu Tang life in Gainesville! Wu tang!!

Florida legend

Met him at the TF in NYC in August of 04’ and played Nolan Lee in skate that day. Ahhhh good times.

This was legit 🫡

Nah man, even crazier - 35mph! "Alligators can reach speeds of up to 35 mph on land (though they're known to tire quickly). And in the water, they can reach a top speed of 20 mph, which is faster than a bottlenose dolphin". Just made me think of that gator video in SC that I think was around last year..gator comes out of a pond and books it! Maybe it is seasonal, like they're slower when it's colder out? FL crazy af
